This dvd also has the original Tarzan. The case went missing so I just put the two discs together. You get Tarzan and Tarzan II. You still only pay 1 credit but I just wanted to let you know! Thanks so much. God Bless, Barbara

"I got a chance to preview this movie before it's release on June 15th and just to let everyone know it will please the Tarzan fans! it really lived up to the first one and it was really cute! The animation not as good as the first one but you can tell Disney put in a lot of thought to this movie and took their time, not rushing it for money like they always do with their sequels. The two new songs by Phil Collins really rock, It leaves you wanting more fromt the man who did the first Tarzan music and Brother Bear! Phil is great and so is this movie! I cannot wait to own this movie on DVD! :) FIVE STARS!"
Well done

"As a babysitter, I have to say, this movie does the trick. I was watching two of the most energetic, smart, bratty (yet somehow still adorable) little kids in the world. They were beginning to drive me crazy, and I had to cook them food. Their mom had left Tarzan Two for them, and I put it in and BAMMMMM silence in the house. Except for laughing. Over dinner, I asked them what they thought of the movie, and they said, in a nutshell, they liked it because it was funny, and they thought Tarzan, Terk, and Tantor were reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally funny. hahaha. After dinner they wanted to watch it again. This time I sat down with them, and on top of being cute, it's a really good film for children. It stars characters that are young, so the target audience can relate, and they're doing heroic and brave things, encouraging kids to get up and move! Another thing I liked, is they also are very respectful to adults!!! Too many movies today glorify kids who are rude to their teachers or parents, and portray adults as idiots and villains.
The casting was very well done, too! Glenn Close stayed on board, YAY cus I think she has the perfect mama voice! And props to little Terk (Brenda Grate) for immitating Rosie O'Donnell so well. Not an easy thing to do! and Tantor is adorable.
It's also nice and short, so littler kids can get through it without a pee break, or fussing.
IN CONCLUSION! I enjoyed this film, so did the little darlings I was watching, and it's a good movie."
It wasn't that bad people

"I was surprised. The animation was as beautiful as the first. ANd the story wasn't half bad. I'm 19 and I still giggled like a 3 year old at some parts. It was a good sequel. It had Sabor in it....come on....that deserves your time alone! It's worth it. At least rent it. It's not a waste. I was hooked to the tv the whole time. ANd there aren't any cheesy songs. The new Phil Collins songs are catchy and pretty darn good! I'm glad I purchased this one, if you're an avid disney animation fan, this is a must!"
Tarzan II.....

"After watching "Tarzan and Jane" recently, I wasn't expecting too much out of this sequel to Tarzan. But, lo and behold, Disney did an outstanding job with this one. Tarzan II focuses on a chapter of Tarzan's life as a child, where he realizes he is not an ape and sets out to discover exactly what he is. Despite the things I've heard people say about the movie, I thought it was a great movie. It was humorous, downright hilarious in some parts and, overall, is a real good, feel good movie. Phil Collins is back on board with the sequel providing music for the movie, Glenn Close and Lance Henrikson do as well as the voices of Tarzan's ape parents. I think the thing I liked most about it was the special feature featurette, The Legacy of Tarzan- A Behind-the-scenes glimpse of how Phil Collins created new music for the film and Tarzan's Matter-of-Facts - Viewing mode that features facts and explains novelist Edgar Rice Burroughs' Unique Ape Language. If you have Tarzan, this is one sequel you need in your collection.
In my opinion, sequels aren't bad if they're done right. I'll admit, Disney has been somewhat formulaic in its' approach to sequels, as of late. Yet, this is one that they did a good job with. If they can keep up the good work with other sequels, as they did with this, they just might restore my faith in them.
